Nominations Have Ended

So the nominations for our “Top Ten Obscure F/SF” book list ended at midnight last night, anymore comments won’t make it onto the nomination list. We have a great list of nominations put forth by our readers and a few of the bloggers and while there was some disagreement on what exactly was meant by obscure I doubt there’s anyone who could go through the comments and know every author/book listed.

This weekend I will be going through the comments, generating the list of the books and finding a polling software I really like. The poll should be up for voting by the middle of next week.
